#Bears QB Mark Sanchez suffered an injury to his knee, source said. Not thought to be major. That's why Connor Shaw wasn't officially waived

The Bears on Tuesday made room on their 90-man roster for veteran receiver Victor Cruz by waiving quarterback Connor Shaw.

Quarterback Connor Shaw missed all of last season with a broken leg.


Shaw joined the Bears last July 1 when he was claimed off waivers from the Browns. He performed well in the preseason, completing 11 of 16 passes for 127 yards with two touchdowns, no interceptions and a 132.0 passer rating.
But Shaw was lost for the season when he suffered a broken leg in the Bears' third preseason game against the Chiefs.
Shaw entered the NFL in 2014 with the Browns as an undrafted free agent from South Carolina. He has appeared in one game, starting the season finale his rookie year against the Ravens and completing 14 of 28 passes for 177 yards with no touchdowns, one interception and a 55.2 passer rating.
Shaw missed the entire 2015 season with a thumb injury he suffered in a preseason game against the Redskins.
Shaw was the only remaining quarterback on the roster who was with the Bears last season. General manager Ryan Pace retooled the position during the offseason, signing veteran free agents Mike Glennon and Mark Sanchez and trading up to select Mitch Trubisky with the second pick in the draft.
The Bears' commitment to Glennon as the starter and Trubisky as their quarterback-of-the-future left few if any practice reps for Shaw.
Cruz, meanwhile, officially signed the one-year contract he had agreed to last Thursday. Cruz spent the first six years of his NFL career with the Giants from 2010-16, catching 303 passes for 4,549 yards and 25 touchdowns while playing in 70 games with 53 starts.

He was probably like: Shit!! The Patriots just called my agent and said they were interested in signing/claiming me!

I can't say I'd be upset with a Sanchez injury. The guy flat out sucks. I'm not buying all the BS that he's needed to mentor Mitchell. If he was such a great mentor, why did Dallas not re-sign him?

Per Rotoworld:

Mark Sanchez - QB - Bears

Bears No. 3 QB Mark Sanchez will be sidelined for the rest of the offseason program with a left knee injury.
Sanchez suffered the injury in Tuesday's OTAs session. The injury caused the Bears to reverse their release of Connor Shaw. Buried behind Mike Glennon and Mitchell Trubisky, Sanchez will be hard pressed to crack the 53-man roster, though he is owed $1 million guaranteed.

Connor Shaw - QB - Bears

The Bears have decided not to waive Connor Shaw.
The team announced the move this morning, then changed course after an OTAs practice. The ex-Brown will serve as a camp arm, though obviously he's near the end of the 90-man roster. He might not make it to July.

Connor's got some strong Voodoo?!

All we need from Sanchez is to be a mentor to young QBs, just put on IR or staff job as ASS QB coach.... Butt fumble... ASS coach.
